Young to talk with Goodell soon

No surprise here, but NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell said he plans to speak with Titans quarterback Vince Young in the coming weeks to discuss his strip club incident in Dallas back on June 14.

Goodell told FoxSports.com at the Rookie Symposium in Carlsbad, Calif., he wants to discuss Young’s misdemeanor assault citation. The conversation could take place over the phone.

Goodell acknowledged, however, that first-time legal offenders like Young usually don’t face discipline.

“The intent of the [personal conduct] policy is to intervene so you help some individuals make a better decision and avoid these troubles. So when I sit down and look at all the facts around Vince or any other player, you want to make sure they understand that and what the policy was designed to do and more importantly understand the responsibility [of being an NFL player,]” Goodell said, according to the report.
